A body of mass 1kg is suspended with the help of two strings making angles as shown in the figure. Magnitude of tensions $ T_1 $ and $ T_2 $, respectively, are (in N):
- In a vertical circle of radius r, at what point in its path does a particle have tension equal to zero if it is just able to complete the vertical circle?
- Tension of a rope when a man of mass \( m \) climbs up or down with an acceleration \( a<g \)?
- In the figure shown, find the ratio of tensions in the strings, \(\frac{T_1}{T_2}\)
- A box of mass 5 kg is pulled by a cord, up along a frictionless plane inclined at 30° with the horizontal. The tension in the cord is 30 N. The acceleration of the box is (Take g = 10 m s–2)
